Doesn't change the fact that HK was not "annexed," nor was/is it majority "unwilling."

It is majority unwilling. People there want real elections and independence

You are talking about their government structure not whether or not they were willing to return to China.

Again the original point is that it was never an annexation, but even if it were, there was minimal protest and discontent in 1997.
